Beyond 4 × 4: Paramotoring a novel approach to accelerate plant exploration in challenging environments

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 7, Issue 1, Page 87-104, January 2025.
Addressing the burning environmental crisis, we explore how the ‘extreme sport’ of paramotoring can enhance and accelerate scientific exploration with minimal environmental impact compared to off‐road vehicles. Our study demonstrates the scientific potential of paramotoring to access fragile desert ecosystems and investigate unrecorded habitats and ...

Time Interleaving in the Analogue Circuitry of Oversampled Digital‐to‐Analogue Converters: Proof of Concept

Electronics Letters, Volume 61, Issue 1, January/December 2025.
Time interleaving techniques allow parallel structures to operate at reduced speeds. This work investigates the feasibility of employing a parallel array of low‐speed DACs. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed approach exhibits the characteristics required for high‐frequency transmitter applications ABSTRACT Digital‐to‐analog converters ...

Expert assessment of illegal collecting impacts on Venus flytraps and priorities for research on illegal trade

Conservation Biology, Volume 38, Issue 5, October 2024.
Abstract Illegal collecting of wild Venus flytraps (Dionaea muscipula) for the horticultural trade represents a persistent threat to populations of the species across their endemic range in the coastal plain of North and South Carolina (United States). Although wild collecting of Venus flytraps is not a novel threat, there has been very little research

Imaging mass spectrometry and MS/MS molecular networking reveals chemical interactions among cuticular bacteria and pathogenic fungi associated with fungus-growing ants

Scientific Reports, 2017
The fungus-growing ant-microbe symbiosis is an ideal system to study chemistry-based microbial interactions due to the wealth of microbial interactions described, and the lack of information on the molecules involved therein. In this study, we employed a

The influence of social identity on attitudes toward wildlife

Conservation Biology, Volume 38, Issue 4, August 2024.
Abstract Wildlife conservation depends on supportive social as well as biophysical conditions. Social identities such as hunter and nonhunter are often associated with different attitudes toward wildlife. However, it is unknown whether dynamics within and among these identity groups explain how attitudes form and why they differ.

The Microbiome of Neotropical Water Striders and Its Potential Role in Codiversification

Insects, 2020
Insects host a highly diverse microbiome, which plays a crucial role in insect life. However, the composition and diversity of microbiomes associated with Neotropical freshwater insects is virtually unknown.

An assessment of future rewilding potential in the United Kingdom

Conservation Biology, Volume 38, Issue 4, August 2024.
Abstract Restoring ecosystems is an imperative for addressing biodiversity loss and climate change, and achieving the targets of the Kunming–Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework. One form of restoration, rewilding, may have particular promise but may also be precluded by requirements for other forms of land use now or in the future.

Inferencia abductiva basada en modelos. Una relación entre lógica y cognición

Crítica, 2018
La abducción ha desempeñado un papel principal en los enfoques filosóficos sobre la generación de nuevas hipótesis explicativas en las ciencias. Por su parte, desde el punto de vista de la ciencia cognitiva, el razonamiento basado en modelos es el ...
